Sims card when setting up iphone?

I just recently bought an iPhone from my friend and want to use it as an iPod… But while i was setting up the iPhone it asked for a Sims card… Can i just go and buy a cheap one from the store and use it, can i use my friends, does it have to be from your service provider, or what can i do?! I don't now much about Sims cards so please help… Thanks.

You can actually get a turned off sim card and place it in there to activate it for use as a ipod. It should be from a carrier that the phone was previously used on, just does not need to be an actual working sim.

  • On which sims is the best to make a sims fat I saw this video of someone making their sims fat. I wanna try to do that. I heard you can do it on sims 3. I also heard you can't make them fat on the iPhone sims version. Is any of that true! Which sims should I get to make them fat? Sims 3 for PC or sims 3 for iPhone?
